How to make Bachpan Ki Yaadein Thele Wali Kulfi

Prepare the Nut Mixture

  1. Step 1

    Take cashews, almonds, pistachios, and cardamom in a mixer and grind them into a fine powder.

Thicken the Milk

  1. Step 1

    Boil full cream milk in a pan until it thickens and reduces in volume. Stir occasionally to prevent burning.

Caramelize the Sugar

  1. Step 1

    In a separate pan, add sugar and heat it until it melts. Stir continuously while cooking.

  2. Step 2

    Add a little water to the melted sugar and cook until it thickens into a golden brown consistency.

Combine Ingredients

  1. Step 1

    Mix the caramelized sugar with the thickened milk and stir well.

  2. Step 2

    Add the ground nut mixture to the milk and sugar mixture. Cook for a few more minutes to combine all flavors.

Freeze the Kulfi

  1. Step 1

    Pour the kulfi mixture into molds and freeze for at least 6 hours or until set.

Tips & Tricks

  1. Ensure the milk is stirred continuously while boiling to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pan.

  2. Use full cream milk for a richer and creamier kulfi texture.

  3. You can garnish the kulfi with chopped nuts before serving for added crunch.

FAQS

  1. Can I use low-fat milk instead of full cream milk?

    Full cream milk is recommended for a creamy texture, but you can use low-fat milk if preferred. The kulfi may be less rich.

  2. How long should I freeze the kulfi?

    Freeze the kulfi for at least 6 hours or until it is completely set.

  3. Can I skip caramelizing the sugar?

    Caramelizing the sugar adds a unique flavor to the kulfi, but you can skip it and use plain sugar if preferred.

  4. Can I add other nuts or flavors?

    Yes, you can experiment with other nuts like walnuts or flavors like saffron or rose water for variation.

  5. How do I prevent ice crystals in the kulfi?

    Ensure the mixture is smooth and well-combined before freezing. Cover the molds tightly to avoid ice crystal formation.
